We’re joined by world-leading bone health expert Professor Lora Giangregorio, to unpack the truth about osteoporosis, stress fractures, and what really keeps your bones strong as you age.

👉 Undereating can quietly weaken your bones
👉 Menopause accelerates bone loss (fast)

And most women only realise it when it’s too late.

If you want to keep running into your 50s, 60s and beyond, this is essential listening.

We also talk about why consistency matters more than one “perfect” long run, how menopause symptoms can affect performance, and why comparing your current fitness to last year’s PB is not always helpful.

Bee shares how her training block was far from perfect, with hamstring niggles, a painful foot issue, a full rest period, and even a last-minute shoe change before Boston.
